ClothoKlotho

One of the Fates; she and her sisters are the daughters of Zeus and Themis.

The three sisters determine the life and death of all mortal beings; Klotho spins the thread of life; her sisters are: Lakhesis (Lachesis) and Atropos; Lakhesis determines the length of the thread; Atropos cuts the thread when the proper time has come for death; the three sisters are also called the Moirai to denote their descent from the original goddess of Fate, Moira.
